Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: January 31, 1824 (Deutsche Biographie; Biographisches Jahrbuch und Deutscher Nekrolog) or December 31, 1824 (Biographies of the Entomologists of the World).

The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
